would there be a problem
using these screws in wood?

IME, German made Spax are well engineered, work well in wood, and are
well worth the extra expense for applications where sheer force strength
is required.

Just insure they're not chinese ripoffs, because those are on the market.


The box says Altenloh, Brink & Co. U.S., Inc.

"Manufactured in U.S.A. or Germany"

What are your thoughts on the "No Pre-Drilling In Wood" claim?


Try on a scrap. I use Spax screws to attach cabinet backs because they
are no predrill. In those 5/8" lengths I have no issue with no predrilling.
FWIW this is nothing new, pocket hole screws are self taping with no
predrilling in the mating piece.
